Investigating and fixing a subtle bug with physics

Players of the game report that sometimes game physics go haywire and items bounce really high. One player has provided the following recording:

Try a prompt that describes the issue in as much detail as you can:

When something is moving or colliding, and the player tabs out then back in, the items do a tremendous bounce. Players report "items go haywire".

Kiro will start investigating project files, and will identify the cause. For example:

The problem is in the physics-system.ts file. When a user tabs out and back in, the lastTimestamp value becomes stale, and when the animation frame resumes, the calculated deltaTime can be extremely large (several seconds instead of milliseconds). This large delta is then used in physics calculations, causing objects to move much farther than they should in a single frame, resulting in the "haywire" behavior.

Based on your initial description, Kiro probably coded a basic fix right away. However, we aren't done yet.

Try asking Kiro:

What other potential solutions or mitigations should I consider?

You may be surprised to see the AI come up with many additional potential fixes beyond what it originally implemented.
